The members of the Pioneer Fire Co rapan y are to practice this afternoon. A minstrel show next week I'se gwine to hoi' a camp-meetin', now, soon as I cin 'semble myself togeder." Just as we have said all along. It's either dust or mud all the time ; no compromise ground here in Charlotte. And the! wind iast took the dast ud. yes terday, an(jl hurled it through the streets and into folks' faces, blinding and choking thera, and causing them to entertain the wish that March would be taken with a leaving. As the i Spring millinery begins to be opened, a brighter glow oyerspreadeth vhe female cheek as she passeth the store win dow, and her heart beateth faster as she ex amines the dmerent pictures of the latest styles and she sayeth, "soon I shall be ar rayed in a dre3s like unto this." -. : Holy Saturday. This is Holy Saturday, the last day of the Lenten season, thfl season of humiliation. On this day, the Catholic Church is stripped of its mourning, and vested with purple. The paschal candies will be blessed and lighted, and the twelve prophecies chanted City Like, . i The dulcet strains of the bells suspended from the necks of numerous kine, both lean and lat, and the appearance upon the streets of these kine themselves, are things which serve to call to mind, almost '. hourly, the fact that we live in a city. Such sounds and sights are never beard- and sees-anywhere else. ; Centennial Gas Light Company. This company began work in good earnest yesterday morning, by starting a trench, for the reception of the pipe, from the corner of Trade and Tryon streets, down Trade toward the Air-Line Depot. The digging had pro gressed as far as the corner of Church street by night-fall, and a portion of the pipe was placed in (he trench. We Want A picture of the man who was talked o t death. We desire to place it on our coat, that the printing office loafer may see it and spare us. Even if it does not cause him to have mercy upon us, the memory of that picture will haunt him after we are gone, and it is a melancholy consolation to us to know this. We want the picture. , ; i . Fix the Bridge The bridge in the middle of East Tryon street, in front of the Lutheran Church, is in a dangerous condition,Jthere being in it a large hole which is likely to be the cause, yet, of some animal breaking its leg, unless it is soon fixed. Day before yesterday, a horse, while being driven over; the bridge, stepped into the hole, which is at least four feet deep, and escaped having his leg bro ken, almost by a miracle. The condition of this bridge demands the instant attention of the Street Commissioner. ; Denies Being the Man. We referred, two or three mornings agO to a rumored case of wife beating, the parti c ulars of which we failed to gather. Mr. H. J. Nprria, who j has a shoe shop over the store of Magill, Heath & Scott, on College street, has called at our office to say that it was reported that be was the man, and to ask ns to say that his wife was, at the time, eight miles from Charlotte. We never laid the charge at Mr. Norns' door, but as he re quests this-publication, we make it, without having any interest in the matter, either one way or the other.' V The Fayettevllle Military and the Meek. lenbnrg Centennial. , ., , r Yesterday, Captain W. F. Campbell, and private Robinson, of the Fayetteville.Inde- pendent Light Infantry, and Lieut. J. ; B.

The idea is advanced and stoutly maintained by those who have had frequent intercourse with him since he has been in confinement here, that the man is non compos mentis. ' He is said to be a monomaniac on the subject o buying goods, and to have practiced the same trick in other places which he played here. The pai lies who arrested and held Rosenthal, gave him the money to . leave. and be boarded the North Carolina train, and shook the dast of Charlotte from off his feet.-" " " Ballroad Fare to the Centennial Cele- bration. In behalf the people of Charlotte and the persons who propose to visit our city qn the occasion of the Centennial Celebration, we make the request of the Piesijents or Sup erintendents of all the railroads running into Charlotte, that they will issue half late tickets over their respective, roads., to all Centennial visitors. We ask further to be notified by the authorities of the different railroads.as soon as practicable,of their com pliance with this request, in order that due notice may be made of the fact. We have no idea that any of the railroad officers will decline to do as requested, and we only call their attention to the fact thus early.for the reason given above. The Salaries of City Officers. A norrespondent inquired through our columns yesterday morning, concerning the amount of salaries paid to city officers. In order to obtain this information, we -called yesterday npon Capt. Fred. Nash, City Clerk and Treasurer, from whom we learned that the pay of the 3ayor is $1,000 per annum and fees ; that of the Clerk and Treasurer, $800; City Jarshal, $800 and the fees ; two Cotton Weighers, $800 each , Keeper of Elmwood Cemetery,, $600 ; Street Commissioner, $500; clerk of the Jfarket $480 ; eight policemen, $50 per month each in seven Summer months, and. $60 each per month in five Winter months. -Waking a total of $10,080.00. The city Surveyor is paid no salary, but is renumerated only for work actually done. ' . - - Children Poisoned. On Thursday, Mr; A. H. Creswell's little son, who goes to scnooi to Miss jNisbet, in the " gmithville" section of the city, obr tained, in some unknown manner, a quan tity of a substance which resembles candy, in its appearance. He gave some to three of bis school-mates-one a little son of Capt. W. B. Taylor, and the other two, sons of Mr. Richard Morse, who ate a small portion of it, and almost instantly became very sick, and began vomiting violently. Mr. Morse's two children were made quite ill and suffer ed considerably ; Capt. Taylor's boy did not eat so much of the poisonous drug, and was not, therefore, so much affected. . The chil dren were not dangerously poisoned, and all were able to be up yesterday. A specimen of the drug was afterwards carried to Dr. T. Scarr, " who examined it and pronounced it to be bi-cfaromate of pot ash. - It is very poisonous, but so very offen sive to the taste, that it is singular that the children should have eaten, any of it The Caledonian Club. " Charlotte stands high in the encourage- n: ent of all good enterprises, a further proof of which was the organisation in this city, of a Caledonian Club, the first in the State. The organization was completed on Thurs day evening, and Scotchmen coming to the city, will now be welcomed by their-own countrymen, in an organized manner. Im provement entertainment and preservation of national characteristics are the objects or the club. The, officers for the year are : A. Macaulay, Honored Chief; Dr. E. Nye Hutchison, Worthy First Chieftain; Rod erick McDonald, Worthy Second Chieftain ' Wm. Phillip, Worthy Third Chieftain ; and Arch'd. Graham, Worthy Fourth Chieftain. The club meets on the first and third Mon- .day lights of every tmonth, All Scotchmen, eons and granasonsoi ocoicnmenrare warm ly invited to attend and join , the . club, the next meeting of which Will be .held on the evening of the 6th of April, in tne office of the -Worthy Third Chieftain, in Jfiller'a building. Whipping Out Five Cents Worth;-; ! Night 'before last, two fashionably dressed darkies called at a certain lager beer saloon, in this city, and called for two beers, i These wpra drawn.' and. having been : drank, the on who called for them laid five cents on the counter, and started out. The beer man reminded him that five cents more was due, to which' the negro responded that he didn't have it, at the same time calling on his com panion to know if he had five cents. He was answered in' the negative, and . started out pretty rapidly! when the beerist drew a long cow-hide from under the counter, Btep ped around and sailed into him. , The negro retreated with 'all possible ' haste, notly puis- sued by the avenger, whose masterly exer cise of the raw-hide stimulated him to a display of a great deal of. alacrity in yacat ne the . nremisesV It was ; only : when the negro was ': outside the door, I up the steps and fairly npon the pavement, that the irate bar tender ceased to shower his ' blows, and returned to the sanctuary... r0. ; , IThoueh the two glasses of beer cost but a pittance in money, it is estimated ;that !the Vincidehtal'r! expenses pr that vlmbibation amounted to about $15, in the estimation of the darkey. An Important Decl.ion ; 4 The Supreme Court of the1 United States has recently rendered an important decision in a case which wentnp from Statesyille, in the Western District of North Carolina, Certain creditors of Mr. John R. Alexander, late of this county, finding that his son, T L Alexander and some others, had obtained judgment against him in the Superior Court of Mecklenburg county, which would , take all his property to. satisfy filed, a petition m bankrapU, against hi within '; four months after; the judgment was taken and had him declared a bankrupt. The creditors then! elected: William P. Little, assignee. His counsel, Jones & Johnston, filed a bill in equity to have the judgment of T L Alex ander declared void as against the 'assignee, and no iienW .tbe property JadgeDil:kj of the United States District ; , Court,' gave a decree against the . assignee, dismissing the bjll and ; the : assignee appealed to : the Supreme Court of the United States, with the result as set forth in the extraet below, which is taken from the Washington Chronicle : ... No. 206. William P Little, assignee, c, appellant, vs. T L Alexander. Appeal from the Circuit Court of the United States for the western district of North Carolina. ; Mr Justice Miller delivered the opinion of the court, reversing the decree of the said ' Cir cuit Court, with costs, and remanding the cause, with directions to enter a decree in favor of the plaintiff, that the judgment of T L Alexander is void as against the assignee and is no lien on the property of the bank rupt in the hands of his assignee. Mr Jus tice Bradley took no part in the decision of this cause. COiflfUHICATED. The Mayoralty, &c. Messes. Editoks : I do not intend to enter the field and dis cuss who shall, or ought to be our. next Mayor, but would be glad if "A Kick Against Thunder" would rise and explain as to where he proposes getting his men (who are responsible) to fill the important posi tions of Marshal and Treasurer, without compensation! .4nd as to the Mayor's few, I suppose they will amount to say $300 per annum. Who would be disposed to dis charge the duties of that important office for such an amount ? If this platform is adopt ed it will be as hard a matter to get good men to accept these positions as it is to get good men in some other positions that are so much complained of YOU BET.
